I recently discovered that you can get Microsoft Edge for Linux (🤢🤮) and am curious... does anyone here use Edge for Linux, or have you ever? What was your reasoning for using it?

EDIT: Well, you all have provided some interesting perspectives I hadn't ever considered. Including one which means I'll have to install Edge, so... thanks, I guess. 😂

How most comments are either "I use X anyways" or "Edge seems to be a decent browser"

It is not. Has no tracking protection at all and itself tracks you a hell lot.

Its just a browser, no need to be tracked, for what in reverse? The same with Chrome, I dont get it?

Here is some actual MITM traffic analysis. Use Firefox Translate to translate.
